I used to do this using the google translate app, but the one you showed here today is more effective. Thanks a lot Luca, I love your tips and the effort you make to bring the best to all of us!!

[PolyglotSecrets]

Great advice! I use this too, but I usually open it through Google translate - it’s available there too, again through a camera icon. Thanks for sharing 😊

I really like using kindle with a dictionary built in. You can just hold down on the word and it will open it in the dictionary that you have installed. You can also translate words (or sentences) in this same way. Also the dictionary can be downloaded so can also be used offline. The best part though is that there is also a function that saves all the words you have looked up in a list and you can go back through them with the dictionary, and it also saves the sentence(s) they appeared in when you looked it up.

Ma come mai non ho scoperto questa funzione prima!!! È sinceramente incredibile!!! Sto cercando d’imparare il coreano ma lo sto trovando molto più difficile rispetto alle altre lingue che sto imparando. Questa rivoluzionerà il mio approccio!!! Grazie mille per il consiglio!!

[tamaravazquez]

This is an amazing tip! Thank you for sharing this. I will be using it a lot!

I usually upload the books to Lingq and read there, but this sounds really useful as well, especially because physical books are so much nicer than digital ones. Great advice as always, Luca

[marinamouse]

Thank you so much, what a useful tip. I tried right away and it worked!

vous êtes extraordinaire ! merci infiniment pour votre aide précieuse. Take care !

That's a great thing 👍 I've been practicing this kind of reading for years, but usually I prepare audios and PDFs in both target and native language (or other language I want the text to be translated into). There are a lot of advantages, first and foremost is that you can listen to a professional audiobook narrator. I like this kind of reading, it helps develop reading and listening comprehension at the same time. My favorite. Thank you 👍

[christianaaronhernandez]

I really appreciate, this just come in time, I was struggling reading my favorite book and I used to looked up every single word but from now on this is going to change how I read. Thanks for everything Luca!

[ginabee]

This is amazing! I just tried it and it works!!

Thanks for the fantastic tip Luca! I myself have never thought of it this way.
What I have done in the past is to use OCR (optical character recognition) to scan in text of a book and then drag it into LingQ and study it. But it is also slightly laborious.
Nonetheless it is a great time to be a language learner with all these technologies available to us.
